Freezing temps

Did anyone else in Western Pa. Use there camper yet and then have to turn the furnace on with this cold wave that's coming through this week?

Yes.

It has been 30º here and snowing like mad since about 5:00 AM and not expected to go above freezing until tomorrow morning.

My furnace is set to 40º as we recently returned from wintering in FL.

We got down to 27 last night and woke up to about 2" of snow here in SW IL.


I just turned on our little electric space heater inside the camper, it will keep it at about 60°F inside at those temps. I didn't re-winterize, and no issues this morning when I went out to check everything. I did fill the FW tank, so that makes a rather large "heat sink" that would have to cool to 32 before it could freeze the supply line.
